American Experiment

The American Experiment; What It Means For The World

How the US adjusts to the increasingly multi-polar world – and the forces of globalization – will have a major impact on world affairs. There is no doubt the global order that emerged in the aftermath of World War II is now in transition. Will the US lead the world into a new and secure interdependent global order, or succumb to nationalistic tendencies, is yet to be determined. The continuity in American leadership is unlikely to occur in absence of system level political, economic, and security reforms that are attuned to the present realities.
